Definitions

  • This invention relates to methods of treating cyclooxygenase mediated diseases and certain pharmaceutical compositions therefor.
  • Non-steroidal, antiinflammatory drugs exert most of their antiinflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activity and inhibit hormone-induced uterine contractions and certain types of cancer growth through inhibition of prostaglandin G/H synthase, also known as cyclooxygenase.
  • prostaglandin G/H synthase also known as cyclooxygenase.
  • cyclooxygenase- 1 the constitutive enzyme, as originally identified in bovine seminal vesicles.
  • the gene for a second inducible form of cyclooxygenase (cyclooxygenase-2) has been cloned, sequenced and characterized initially from chicken, murine and human sources.
  • This enzyme is distinct from the cyclooxygenase- 1 which has been cloned, sequenced and characterized from various sources including the sheep, the mouse and man.
  • the second form of cyclooxygenase, cyclooxygenase-2 is rapidly and readily inducible by a number of agents including mitogens, endotoxin, hormones, cytokines and growth factors.
  • prostaglandins have both physiological and pathological roles, we have concluded that the constitutive enzyme, cyclooxygenase- 1 , is responsible, in large part, for endogenous basal release of prostaglandins and hence is important in their physiological functions such as the maintenance of gastrointestinal integrity and renal blood flow.
  • cyclooxygenase-2 is mainly responsible for the pathological effects of prostaglandins where rapid induction of the enzyme would occur in response to such agents as inflammatory agents, hormones, growth factors, and cytokines.
  • a selective inhibitor of cyclooxygenase-2 will have similar antiinflammatory, antipyretic and analgesic properties to a conventional non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug, and in addition would inhibit hormone-induced uterine contractions and have potential anti-cancer effects, but will have a diminished ability to induce some of the mechanism-based side effects.
  • such a compound should have a reduced potential for gastrointestinal toxicity, a reduced potential for renal side effects, a reduced effect on bleeding times and possibly a lessened ability to induce asthma attacks in aspirin-sensitive asthmatic subjects.
